Prakash Surya 94520ca462 Prune metadata from ghost lists in arc_adjust_meta
To maintain a strict limit on the metadata contained in the arc, while
preventing the arc buffer headers from completely consuming the
"arc_meta_used" space, we need to evict metadata buffers from the arc's
ghost lists along with the regular lists.

This change modifies arc_adjust_meta such that it more closely models
the adjustments made in arc_adjust. "arc_meta_used" is used similarly to
"arc_size", and "arc_meta_limit" is used similarly to "arc_c".

Testing metadata intensive workloads (e.g. creating, copying, and
removing millions of small files and/or directories) has shown this
change to make a dramatic improvement to the hit rate maintained in the
arc. While I think there is still room for improvement, this is a big
step in the right direction.

In addition, zpl_free_cached_objects was made into a no-op as I'm not
yet sure how to properly implement that function.
